In Search of Stoney Jackson is produced entirely by Madlib, longtime friend of Phil Da Agony and extended Strong Arm Steady family. The album’s conception owes a great deal to World Famous Beat Junkie, J.Rocc, who provided the trio with close to 200 of the Madlib the Beat Konducta’s tracks to choose from. Strong Arm Steady had previously rapped over Madlib productions on the Madlib and Talib Kweli Liberation album, but this full-length marks a long-desired collaboration between the four. It’s a hip-hop jam session, with the group acting as the rhythm section for an all-star cast of guest vocalists such as Planet Asia, Guilty Simpson, Evidence, Chase Infinite, and Phonte of Little Brother. (Stones Throw)
This will hit the streets January 26th and is already available as a digital release via the Stones Throw website!

It’s almost time! So many have been waiting for Fashawn‘s debut album “Boy Meets World”. In case you’ve been living under a rock or just tuned in to this talented MC from Cali…wake the f*ck up! This right here is the new crack to listening to. The whole album has a feel to it..hard to explain, but it makes me feel like I just went back in time to when Hip Hop wasn’t a gimmick or media thing. Pure nineties Hip Hop music for your enjoyment. You’ll see what I’m talking about as soon as you listen to the goosebump evoking “Lupita” with some slick ass guitar play.
Is it just me or does this feel like listening to cats like Pharcyde? Imma just say it man. Hip Hop is back…yeah I said it! Fashawn and Exile (who tears up the mic on “Bo Jackson”) hit the nail on the head with this one. Artists like Aloe Blacc, Evidence, Blu, Co$$ and Planet Asia bless this album with a cameo…BUY THIS ALBUM WHEN IT DROPS!!

Fashawn‘s “Boy Meets World” album is coming closer by the day (Oct. 20th). Lately I’ve been seeing one dope video after another. Not only did Punit Dhesi direct the “Sunny CA” video, he also recently did the “Life As A Shorty” vid and that one is simply amazing. Together with the “Our Way” video with Evidence, I count three consecutive homeruns. Can’t wait for the album to drop and I know ya’ll can’t neither. So in the meantime here is another bone to keep you hungry dogs satisfied for the moment. All day, here is “Sunny CA” west up ya’ll..big up Exile.
Very blessed to be sharing this podcast that Exile put together for LA based record label, Plug Research. It’s a mix comprised of exclusive instrumentals and includes plenty of exclusives from various upcoming projects, including his “Radio” remix project (coming soon), the upcoming album with Fashawn (In-Stores Oct. 20th), upcoming projects with Chicago based MC – ADAD – and a reintroduction to certain key pieces from Exile’s past catalogue. Look out for the upcoming remix project where various producers remix certain tracks from Exile’s “Radio” album, as well as MCs getting in on some of the instrumentals. Remixes and features include Alchemist, Evidence, Samiyam, DJ Day, Clutchy Hopkins, Flying Lotus, Blu, and many more. Thnx to J. Kim for the heads up and Exile for the dope podcast!
Aha…finally some Fashawn on MOOVMNT. I heard about this cat a while back and he reminds me a lot of that cat from the Pharcyde on the joint we have for you. When someone told me Exile was producing his upcoming album - “Boy Meets World” – (which drops September 1st) I was sold. This cat has a great delivery, fresh wordplay and charisma. His brand new single – “Freedom” – is now available on iTunes! On the b-side you can find “Our Way” featuring partner in rhyme Evidence. Last, but not least a bonus track…“The Outer City”.

One third of the influential LA hip-hop group Dilated Peoples, Evidence masterfully launched his solo career last year with his debut solo album “The Weatherman”. An accomplished rapper and producer, his long standing video partnership with Decon director Jason Goldwatch makes him a perfect fit for a new installment of Decon’s multi-media series of releases, which combines audio and video content from the hottest hip-hop artists.
The Layover features 6 all new tracks from Evidence, as well a DVD featuring the first full video collaboration between Jason Goldwatch and Evidence focusing on the theme of The Layover. The long-standing relationship between the two have created some of hiphop’s most classic videos, including videos for Evidence’s “Mr. Slow Flow”, and for Dilated Peoples’ “Back Again”, “Worst Come To Worst” and “Work The Angles”. This new take on the video collaboration between two artists will result in a release peppered with the artistic, guerilla approach that the two share.
